Cystoscopy. Guide. Cystoscopy (say sis-TAW-skuh-pee) is a test that allows your doctor to look at the inside of your bladder and urethra. It's done using a thin, lighted tube called a cystoscope. The doctor inserts this tube into your urethra and on into the bladder.ystoscopy may be done to: 1  Find the cause of many urinary system problems. 2  Remove tissue samples for testing (biopsy). 3  Remove a foreign object. 4  Insert a stent. 5  Treat certain problems. 6  Inject a dye that is used for a special type of X-ray of the ureter and kidney.
Cystoscopy is performed with a cystoscope -- a special tube with a small camera on the end (endoscope). The cystoscope can be inserted in different ways, but the test is the same. Which cystoscope your health care provider uses depends on the purpose of the exam.
